Maker pHAT: Simplifying Raspberry Pi for Education

Maker pHAT Makes Raspberry Pi Simple! It is designed to:

Simplify to get startedwith Raspberry Pi without any monitor, keyboard or mouse (Headless). Go headless in a few simple steps as Maker pHAT enables the user to remote access the Raspberry Pi through serial.

Simplify learning electronics.Beginners can skip the hassle of constructing the basic electronic circuit! Although it is important for students to learn about basic electronics, that come later after they have experienced how easy and fun it is to create awesome projects. Start with fun and excitement! Start coding right away, and see your board light up and play sound with the press of a button! Maker pHAT comes with on board LEDs, push buttons and a buzzer so you can easily learn how to control input and output. No messy wiring or additional components needed!

Simplify troubleshooting and prototyping. Not only do the onboard LEDs work as outputs, they can also act as indicators, clearly showing what's happening on that pin. When the pin is used as input, you can clearly see whether the signal is received by just looking at changes on the LEDs. The pre-soldered header pins come with nice labels. This helps the user easily connect inputs and outputs to the right pins. This will further assist in interfacing with sensors and actuators.

Simplify proper shutdownusing a push button. You can easily follow a few simple steps and choose one of the push button as a power button to properly shutdown the Raspberry Pi.
